I really miss played playing socom, and I understand the xlink but for some reason I don't know how to set it up. I know I need a laptop but all I have is windows 8 and I was told I can't use windows so what do I do? I really wanna play.

I use windows 7. I have heard windows 8 is tough to get it running on. I think if you research Youtube you may find videos on how to set it up using Windows 8.. I think windows 8 sucks bad and nothing seems to work with it when it comes to gaming.
